Crocodile Print Rainboots: Jimmy Choo for Hunter's vs. Target

Rain boots are the perfect addition to any one's wardrobe. When the ground is wet, they'll keep your feet dry. Celebrities are even sporting the boots when the weather calls. Everyone from the Olsens to Kate Moss own a pair! Jimmy Choo collaborated with Hunter's to create the crocodile print.

The buckles are aren't exactly the same, but once they're on, no one will notice a difference. The crocodile print is the perfect balance between basic and trendy. Since they are black and the pattern is subtle, they can go with everything. Another bonus: Target also sells the fleece socks that can be worn with the rainboots. They are on sale for $7.99!

Printed Rompers: Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent vs. Forever 21

I love rompers! Who doesn't? "Romper" is the new term for a one piece jumpsuit. Many of the celebrities are loving this trend. Beyonce was spotted various times wearing the Cynthia Vincent romper (featured below in a different color). If that isn't exactly in your price range, don't worry! There's other options available to achieve the same look.

Forever 21 $16.90: Found online @ Forever 21

The two are very similar. The patterns differ but they both give off the same "safari" feel. They both feature pockets on the front (although it is somewhat hard to tell from the picture). Something like this would look great with tan or metallic shoes.
